than 36,000 leading attorneys cast millions of votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their
practice areas, and because lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best
Lawyers® is considered a singular honor. Corporate Counsel magazine has called Best Lawyers® “the most
respected referral list of attorneys in practice.” The lawyers being honored as “Lawyer of the Year”
